A poem Today I smiled and all at once, Things didn't look so bad,. Today I. shared with someone else, :1 bit of hope I need. Today I sang a' little song, Ad felt my heart go light. Ans walked a happy little nide, With not a cloud in sight. Today 1 worked with what I had, And longed for nothing more, And what had seemed like only weeds, Were flowers. at'my door„ Today I loved a little more, Complained a little less, And in the giving of myself, Forgot ,my weariness.
